Reading the cards: minutes are our estimates from map distance, so they say "about". Breakfast, suites and kitchens are what each hotel brand promises across its hotels, not something we checked room by room. The places listed under a hotel are the closest ones within roughly a 10-minute walk of its door.

Bowdoin College names Terrace of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art as its main ceremony venue, usually in May. It isn't on our campus map, so the walk times on this page run to the tour start only. Date: 'We look forward to celebrating the Bowdoin class of 2027 leading up to and on May 29, 2027'.
Rooms close to campus tend to go first for commencement, often months ahead and with a two-night minimum. If the walkable ones are gone, sort the list by the 10-minute drive chip and look one town over. Our graduation weekend guide covers timing.

A hat for the tour, a hoodie for the acceptance letter, a frame for the far end of it all. Each button runs an Amazon search for that item with the school's name filled in.
